Abstract
Background
Biliary complications represent the most frequent and clinically relevant adverse events after liver transplantation, contributing substantially to morbidity, graft dysfunction, and reduced patient survival.
Methods
We performed a review of current evidence to explore the prevalence, etiology, diagnosis and treatment of biliary complications after liver transplantation, focusing on the emerging role of therapeutic endoscopic ultrasound.
